The defect
The involved vehicles do not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 210, "seat belt assembly anchorages". The non-compliance exists because the rear seat belt anchorages may pull through the underbody of the vehicle if enough force IS applied.
The risk
Consequence of defect: in the event of an accident, personal injury or death may result from a failure of belt to adequately restrain occupants.
The remedy
Upon inspection, dealer will install a rear seat belt anchorage reinforcement kit to ensure proper anchoring of seat belts without charge to owner.
